Don’t Be Awful: Why does the tech industry talk such nonsense?

With a little over 20 hours of video still left to post from our marathon Don’t Be Awful event, there are plenty of serious topics to come: Income inequality, evictions, plus more on the mental health issues, race and gender.

But in addition the real issues discussed during the event, we made sure to carve out time for some lighter issues. For example, why does the tech industry insist on using such stupid terms to discuss itself?

In the video below, I chat to writer and comedian Emerson Dameron about that very issue. It’s a pretty silly conversation but at least at one point we come up with a better phrase for “disruptors.”
